One of my most favourite swords, if you like to take chances in your damage this is the sword for you, if your lucky and get that 200 strength boost you will easy dominate all of the mobs in your path as long as the buff lasts. Although, if you dont like to gamble, you should probably go for another sword in the auction house, but with the strength buff, this sword is legendary, in my eyes.

This sword isn't nearly as "bad" as people make it out to be. It's not gonna one-shot Rag or anything, but at it's level, it's not too bad. It's got built-in Crusader, and what's nice is that the effect stacks with an actual Crusader enchant, giving you massive strength if you catch both at the same time.

It's not worth the prices I usually see it listed for, but I would pay upwards of 40g, 50g for it. It looks cool if nothing else.

With the speed of the thing I chose a 2H fury build, thinking my gear was good enough for it (twinked out warrior from 40-49 bracket).

Boy was I wrong! Sure you can ratchet your DPS to really high levels but you need trinkets and rage and time to click all the buttons, and the mob is almost dead by then, or you're dead in PvP due to the lack of essential abilities like hamstring.

Honestly, if you've got more brains than me just go for the IBS in AV, arms dominates for leveling, and it allows you to do your fair share of PvP

Personally, given the BASE math, I think this weapon is great for its level and a few levels up.I found mine by luck a year ago, and have been saving it for my paladin ever since. I've calculated a few things into the base of this weapon, given no increases through stats or anything, all raw data.

At that level, even if you believe the procs are very minimally seen, that is still a burst of large quantities of damage added to instant strikes and such in 10 seconds. On my paladin, I'd wager an 86.5 dps weapon at 52 (even if for a very short time) would make Crusader Strike hit very hard, regardless of the fast speed of the weapon. That's not my main concern though. As for me as a Paladin, white damage is sadly most of my gameplay, and this thing would kick out a bunch of good white damage due to its procs if Crusader is applied. Would make grinding very nice, in my opinion.

this sword with crusader is a must for all you paladins out there that crave some decent damage, if crusader and destiny proc thats +300 strength for 8-12 secs, you might get 5 or 6 hits in but you will crit very high

Comment by waxxyy

I'm with this question in my head, and I'm gathering money to buy the DESTINY in AH, but the ICED BARBED SPEAR is a quest reward, then I can spend the money that i'm saving for DESTINY to put the CRUSADER ENCHANT on it... so I don't know if I buy DESTINY and wait a long more to catch more money 4 CRUSADER CHANT, or get the ICED BARBED SPEAR and put the CRUSADER CHANT at the same time...

what u guys suggest ???

Also drops off of Manaclaw. An lvl 58 elite dragon in a cave in Mazthoril in Winterspring. The fight wasn't too hard for a BM hunter. The dragon has 17k hp and does a frost attack. Very easy to take down. He does have a partial immunity to arcane spells.

Comment by Kefra

I'm not too sure about that. By level 52 a Retadin will have enough talent points to learn Crusader Strike. That ability, and Seal of Command, are dependent on slow weapon speed for maximum damage. Destiny, with 2.60 weapon speed, is one of the fastest 2-handed weapons you'll find. By all means buy one of these and slap Crusader on it if you have the gold (keeping in mind that by level 60, you'll find greens in Outland that make this thing obsolete). Otherwise, hold out for a slow, hard-hitting blue, or even a green.

I just picked this up for my 54 Prot Pally, for questing/grinding/killingfaster. I thought that JoW or JoL w/ SoC would be my best option for this weapon, but it isn't. Atleast not for me.

I have almost 200str and no Agi to speak of, dps set, and I was only able to do 100dps normal, and 150 ish when it proced.

however, JoC/SoR was yielding 150-180dps, and 200+ when it proced. which is a big improvement over the 50-75dps that i do w/ my tanking gear on. but with 8k armor at 54, you can't go wrong.

I plan on putting crusader on it, just couldn't find any righteous orbs, and can't solo Lstrat W/ my Spriest. I'm sure it will be much better after that.

IBS to me is nothing compared to this if you want to pvp.

Comment by kevin9488

Well i kinda changed my mind lol =) that comment was while i was still green. Yeah its too fast.. Not worth getting it. Get Blade of Misfortune. Its cheaper and better. Although if you are lucky.. This might be good lol. Proc right after proc.

Comment by Moklar

I'd love to get this on my Prot-Pala for killing single mobs.

This item is good for that BECAUSE of the speed since a Prot. Paladin probably has Reckoning and with it procing you'll get 3 extra attacks within the next 10 secs = nice holy damage.

Personally I have specced Imp. SoR so I can do better damage with a two-hander as well.

Human, MS Warrior Level 60. If acquired at level 52 with the crusader enchant, adding in Sword Specialization and the racial traits for humans and sword. I have to tell you, with the speed of the weapon, it procs so much in a battle (especially in Berserker Stance, with Whirlwind strike) I have had DPS like nothing I have seen. This sword is ideal for leveling, especially if grinding. Ice Barbed Spear is better for Elite mobs due to stat buffs and crits off of Heroic strike. Only slightly mind you. Add in elixirs like the one the moonkin in Winterspring drop on you and a nice Diamond Flask Trinket. You can do wondrous things with this sword. The reason the value is sort of low for an epic is it fairly easily drops, both on the world and in Dungeons; and the fact it is a very specific weapon for only a couple of classes at best. I have used it from 52 until 59 when some of the Greens from Outlands started to take over in my weapon locker. This thing is a meat grinder, an absolute terror in BG between 52-59 in Arathi Basin.

wish blizzard could "copy paste" this item with new stats (3.60-80 PLEASE!) in northrend.. such a nice sword.. just the cable looks horrible.. you hold on the middle of it.

Comment by killerbane

The proc from this sword DOES stack, in case any of you 60 warriors were wondering.

Comment by Darthdavo

Titan-grippable!

Comment by SkaZulu

Hmm thinking about Dual Wielding two of these at lvl 60 (Fury Warrior) and adding Crusader :-) Has anyone done that ?

Comment by WintersLegion

This just dropped for my level 57 Paladin it was my very first epic would of liked to use it but I know when I go to outland I will just replace it so it's getting AH'd.

Comment by WoWLaMaO

looking cool

Comment by lionsblood

If only they'd have given us more classic-looking swords like this instead of that many swords made out of purple crystals and those butt-ugly green-quality swords in WotLK.

Comment by dookieshed

I just got one of these running my little bro through Strat off the very first pull of non-elites. I know it's not as potentially killer as it could be due to the speed, but I don't see an epic being completely useless. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do with it? What kind of character to give it to, and what enchant to stick on it?

Comment by Happyfaic

You guys are missing the point: It looks &*!@ing awesome. Invaluable RP weapon.

Comment by barnstorm

With the transmogrification feature being introduced in patch 4.3, this weapon could see a spike in interest due to its classic styling.

Comment by gima

Just picked this up while solo'ing Blackrock Spire, think I'm going to hang onto it for a while :|

Comment by Agronok

Oh hush this doesn't look that great-

*Checks it on his Warr alt, DWing them with the Rare lv60 Warr PvP set*

The Ice Barbed Spear wins mostly because it only needs one thing to proc in order to reach its maximum potential. Destiny won't have both procs active very often, and even when it does, IBS with Berserking up edges it out.

TL;DR If the price of Berserking < the price of Destiny + Crusader (or you have the mats and an enchanter handy), Ice Barbed Spear is a no-brainer. If AV is tough to win in your battlegroup, Destiny is honestly not half-bad.

Comment by Zuishengqi

could anyone tell me where this drop the most and on which creature?
